I'll keep this short. I live in UK. I have a cordless Bosch 24v combie
drill. Gets heavy daily use. 3 years old, batteries no longer hold
charge. Searched internet for UK suppliers of replacement batteries. I
need 2. Best price - £120 each - check my maths, that makes £240 for two
new batteries. Searched internet again for new drill. Came up with the
same Bosch drill - latest version - with three, yes three, batteries
thrown in for only £264. So I bought a new drill.


I have a Bosch 12V driver/drill, and have already bought one
replacement battery. Now I need another - so, based on prior discussion
in this news.group, I'm going to have http://www.primecell.com/ rebuild
it for $36.50 (2 AH) or $49.50 (2.4 AH). I haven't decided which, but
the newer battery I have now is 1.7 AH.
